Mk 7:33b ... he-cast the fingers of-him into the ears of-him, ...

The second phrase has these 8 narrator words ... ebalen tous daktulous autou, eis ta ōta autou (he cast the fingers of him, into the ears of him, ...).

The 8 narrator words are top down. The two pairs of words "daktulous autou" (fingers of him) and "ōta autou" (ears of him) are tangent to the fingers of Jesus and to the ears of the deaf-mute. The man has to be in the exact center of the diagram for the geometry to work. To do this, Jesus has to get the man and the demon on the 'operating table.' The 'Unclean Spirit' has been broken into nine equal parts, just like in the previous miracle. The demon is immobilized by also breaking the two large white equilateral triangles into eighteen smaller equally sized triangles. Jesus cast (extended) his fingers so geometrically they would be tangent to the words and simultaneously enter the man's ears. The diagram shows Jesus did this to break the bond between his ears and tongue. Jesus is now ready for step two of the procedure, breaking the bond on his tongue.
